My eyes rolled, my vision dazed.
"Mumma."
The air bag hit me sharply in the face.
"Mumma."
Alarms screamed at me.
"Yes my darling Zoe."
Warmth trickled from my head.
"Look what I've found!"
I felt stinging in the back of eyes.
"Oh, it's beautiful darling."
There was no feeling in my arms or legs.
"Wherever did you find it my love?"
Then, there was only blackness.
"I found it over there," the young girl held a violet flower to her mother while pointing across the sunny meadow.
"Well lets go see if we can find some more, shall we," her mother beamed, standing up from the picnic blanket and taking the young girl's hand in her long delicate fingers.
Her chin-length caramel coloured hair was in ringlets and bounced gracefully against her neck, she wore a white summer dress and had a straw summer ridged hat on with a piece of fabric tied around the base. She laughed a beautiful laugh that rang out melodically as she skipped along with her daughter to where a whole bunch of identical violet flowers grew.
"Oh, they're all so gorgeous Zoe," she smiled, kissing the girl's forehead lovingly.
"I know," she grinned.
